- this is an example of madeleine McCann's letter sent to the portuguese in regards to madeleines disappearance.
- The daily Mirror said the letter gave permission to arrest burglars believed to have been working in the resort on the day madeleine went missing.
- 17 days before madeleine disappeared, the police claimed that there was one attempted burglary in the block where madeleines family was staying at.
Reporting about Madeleines disappearance, we can only find evidence and witness of what has happened to her. This example is another evidence found recently about Madeleines disappearance giving the police the authority to arrest burglars who was present during that night Madeleine went missing. I chose this as an example of the BBC guidelines because it tells the public about what is happening to McCann's case and what the police are doing to resolve it, raising awareness about the world we live in.

- A teenage school girl was arrested for being racist after refusing to sit next to a group of asian students because some of them did not speak english.
- '' The incident happened in the same local education authority where a ten-year-old boy was prosecuted earlier this year for calling a schoolfriend racist names in the playground, a move branded by a judge "political correctness gone mad."
This is example of equality and diversity being broken by a young teenage girl at school refusing to sit down with asian pupils her age because ''She can't understand them'', the journalist who reported this incident was clearly against the young girl's action and tries to display an event that is breaking the rules of human rights. (This is also an example of serving the publics interest).
